Firefox and SpanishD
I downloaded Firefox this morning and it seems to work well, so far. My only "complaint" is that double-clicking a word in the text box (when writing question/answer) will not give the blue-box translation, as Internet Explorer did (though the blue box will appear if clicked when fully posted). I do not suppose anyone has a way to get the blue-box translation to appear in the text box for Firefox, do they? It was very helpful for double-checking my work without having to always type the word into the dictionary.

I have firefox and the blue box translator works while I'm typing. There's a grey box that appears below the answerbox that I'm typing in and if I double click on the words in the grey box the blue translations appears
. Although, in the white box I'm typing in the double click feature doesn't work...
Maybe I'm misunderstanding.....
I use Firefox, and although the little 'blue box translator' doesn't work on a new post, I have my default Language in Firefox set to Spanish. So, as I'm typing a post the Spanish dictionary is 'live' and is spell checking my work. I don't know if this would help you or not. The cool thing is, you can switch back and forth between languages just by 'right clicking' anywhere on a page and selecting the new language. If you don't have it, you can download it from here
I love Firefox, too, but I agree with you:
I'd like to be able to double-click on a word in my post and see if it's spelled correctly in Spanish.
It's weird that it works in one browser and not another.
Try Google Chrome
I use the following:
Firefox
Internet Explorer
Google Chrome (my favorite)
A big thank you to Jack, Princess, Gekkosan, and Name for your answers. You are all accepted (hypothetically speaking). However, for the direct nature of my question, the prize will have to go to Nametaken for having the most direct answer. Many thanks!
I going to try to use the double-click here and see what happens.
Nope. It didn't work, and I'm using Firefox. ![]()
Geez... back from the dead.
It also works in Mozilla's SeaMonkey (which I use) and can be downloaded from here
in my case (Mac, Firefox), the blue box comes up when double-clicking on words that are already posted, but not while writing in the "Answer" box. However, I have my spell-checker function turned on, which works even better, because it immediately underlines any misspelled (or unrecognized) words as I type.
That works very nicely indeed!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, a post while you are writing it!!!
(when writing question/answer)
Which shows, nobody reads the text thoroughly![]()
I had never used that function anyway, hmmm, it does work on Chrome? yesssss, it does, interesting, well, then, no idea, jej, so todo lo que dicho sobraba![]()
I'm running FireFox 363 on a Mac. The bluebox works fine
I am using firefox for the site, the blue box is working fine for me![]()
